Large Goat Cheese Green Salad packaged in plastic nonflexible containers

Whole Foods Market recalled Large Goat Cheese Green Salad packaged in plastic nonflexible containers in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Jan 24, 2019.

The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "Product potentially contaminated with Salmonella." Salmonella is one of the most common causes of U.S. foodborne illness, with symptoms that typically appear within six hours to six days of exposure.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "Connecticut, Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Austin, TX. The recall covers 6 units of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Mar 6, 2019), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
